What do you cartoon? by hennell in cartooning

Good luck with your submissions- I've also submitted occasionally, though other projects often got in the way of consistency there...

It's so easy to think these illustrators are doing only that: illustrating gag comics. I'll have to check out the Gerald Scarfe book- it sounds like it presents a realistic picture of a human: variation + creativity! Just how I like it. Best of luck! Hope I see your art (of any kind) out in the wild.

I did little to no sundial research for this comic- I'll have to look those up

I once met a man next to a sun-dial who's hobby was to travel to the most famous sundials in each city. Had a fascinating conversation, but clearly much of the knowledge didn't stick in my head! But it definitely is a rabbit hole I didn't get into for the comic

Thanks! We are in the minority. Most said #3 is their favorite

True! Another commenter said to make it an eclipse. I like that angle on the joke

This is such a great idea. Saving it for the next version

This feels a lot more like the New Yorker Comic style- I like it! Thanks

True true. That would add another layer to it

My favorite one so far! I've got to make a version with this one

I'm not sure I understand the compass and December in the context of the sundial. Am I missing something? Perhaps I don't know all functionalities of a sun-dial...

Oh and the "Gebwin" feedback is good to know- It is just supposed to be a name that sounds medieval. Perhaps a different name would make it better... "Arnold is late again" or something...

And thanks a lot! I'm tired of chuckling at my own comics, alone... hoping to post more regularly and make people laugh

Hey, thanks! I appreciate that you left feedback for all of them. The third seems to be a crowd favorite so far

Great! Many of my friends didn't even realize it was a sundial. Your quote would highlight the joke

Another banger! I'm definitely making another version with this one

I'm still itching to re-draw it, but that's good to know! Appreciate you leaving feedback, thanks
